Broke Zahara goes after DJ Sbu for Loliwe album royalties
Zahara is challenging DJ Sbu to a sit-down TV interview to set the record straight on the money that is still allegedly owed to her for her Loliwe album. Popular pot-stirrer and Barry Roux recently tweeted that he wished that Zahara would re-record her Loliwe album so that she could start benefiting from it financially. It was implied that Zahara was not getting paid royalties for her music.
DJ Sbu was quick to slam those claims. Zahara’s money has always gone to her my brother,” Sbu responded, attaching a screenshot of three documents in which it’s alleged that Zahara receives what’s due to her. However, taking it to the media, Zahara said that she has never received any funds for the work she did with the Loliwe album.
“It’s all lies,” she said, fuming. Zahara added, “I haven’t been getting anything since I left the record label, and I saw recently that my music was uploaded on digital platforms without me knowing, which means they sold my records to somebody and it means I need to get a cut for it.”

The Mgodi hitmaker went on to say that she had made various attempts to make contact with DJ Sbu since their last conversation nearly a year and a half ago.
“When I tried to communicate several times even last year, I tried so many numbers to contact them and no-one answered their phones … I always call them … they don’t care.”
The singer added that she had thought of taking them to court but knew that she would not be able to afford the fees. Zahara is adamant that the only thing that can settle their long-standing spat is a TV interview and would like DJ Sbu to answer her call.
